Here are some of the changes that have been made:
- An issue was reported concerning the creation of new notes within the currently open folder. This problem disrupted the organization and management of notes, causing inconvenience for users. The browser update addresses this issue by ensuring that new notes are created within the appropriate folder, streamlining note-taking and facilitating efficient organization.
- With the recent update, the Get Started page is now added as the last step of the onboarding process. This modification allows users to familiarize themselves with the core features of the browser in a more structured manner, making the onboarding experience more user-friendly.
- A regression issue was reported that affected the functionality of the Password Manager popup. This issue disrupted the autofill feature, causing inconvenience for users trying to access their saved passwords.
- Users noticed a regression issue that prevented the Tab Switcher button from working when tab grouping was disabled. This issue hindered efficient navigation between tabs, especially for users who preferred not to use tab grouping. The recent update has addressed this regression, allowing users to switch between tabs using the Tab Switcher button, regardless of whether tab grouping is enabled or disabled.
- Users encountered a problem with the options available inside the bookmark trash that has been resolved in this build.
